The Music Discussion forum has replaced the old Lyrics and Samples forum and the Live Scene and Music Reviews forum. This forum is used to discuss anything relating to Music including Orbital topics, the live scene including Orbital gigs past, present and future. This section is an ideal place to post your live gigs reviews and album / single reviews. This forum can also be used to discuss Orbital lyrics and samples. The website will never disclose or confirm samples for legal reasons - so this is the next best thing.

Yeah, but the point I was making is that the PRS only pay to artists featured in the songs... Therefore as there's no original Phil n' Dog material in there, we wouldn't get paid. If the writing credits were 'Macinnes/Garcia/Shillito/Blake' then we would be paid, but we didn't contribute anything to the tracks, just the arrangement and that doesn't count for anything...

Lopez is right. If they were using your bootleg, you would not be entitled to publishing royalties, cos you didn't write the track, but you did 'perform' it (Performing Rights Society), so therefore you would have been entitled to PRS payments.
If Dido decides to perform an Elton John track at a live concert which is then sold as a CD, she would get the PRS money, he would get the publishing money...
Here's what Toronto record store Play de Record has to say about Doctor Pressure on their website:
"Description: Excellant mash up that drops the vocals of the Gloria Estefan and Miami Sound Machine hit "Doctor Love" over the "Release the Pressure" hit from Mylo. Seriously, it dont get much bigger than this one. Also includes remixes from the Stanton Warriors and Rex the Dog, in addition to the original. Price: $14.99 CAD"
Doctor love?!
Through a roll-call thread on a Toronto forum, found out Mylo will be here next weekend for $10 (£4.50!) at some venue I've never heard of. Can't find the gig on his site or any details anywhere else, but I'm going and dragging a friend or two with me anyway.
I tried to see him at Glasto but the tent was just SO RAMMED with people I couldn't even get near. I'm lookign forward to this one.
Weird that it's not publicized anywhere... and from what I can tell the venue is pretty small (500-700 or so).
Australian release of Doctor Pressure, btw, is 3rd October - same tracks as the UK CD
Promo CD has an extra mix of "Drop The Pressure" (possibly now emulating Frankie Goes To Hollywood's "Relax" in the number of different mixes out there)!
